Description
Paginator (sanely!) does a check to verify that the queryset it is passed is ordered, and if it isn't, shows a warning.
However, if also emits this warning if passed a queryset which is guaranteed to be empty, for instance Article.objects.none()
Working around this warning involves doing a bizarre Article.objects.none().order_by('id')
I believe there can be legitimate usecases for passing a .none() queryset to a paginator, for instance if a user's permissions are such that we restrict the objects they can view to the empty queryset.
